SKIN: SEDUCTION OF SURFACE - AG of NS

NEW EXHIBITION AT THE ART GALLERY OF NOVA SCOTIA 
May 18 to September 8, 2012 


Curator: Sarah Fillmore



Place, race, religion, fragility, identity and sexuality are all probed through physical and conceptual ideas of skin. This exhibition brings together works by Canadian and international artists whose work explore notions of skin in paint, print, sculpture and performance. Opening a dialogue that goes beyond sex and figure, the artworks included in this exhibition help articulate the seduction of surface.

Artists include: Colleen Wolstenholme, Attila Richard Lukacs, Gillian Wearing, Mitch Mitchell, Duke & Battersby, Til Friewald, Shary Boyle, Evergon, Vito Acconcci, Kent Monkman, among others.
